The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy does not hold centrally the breakdown between advice on legal disputes and other forms of advice and this can only be obtained disproportionally.

Legal, professional and consultancy costs are included within note 4.1 of the BEIS Annual Report and Consolidated Accounts here.
